As icy weather moves into the Benbrook area late Friday night, local tree expert Jason Atwood of Atwood Tree Care is encouraging residents to take a few simple steps now to help protect their trees from cold damage.
Freezing temperatures can stress trees, especially younger or recently planted ones. The good news is that a little preparation can go a long way. Proper mulching, moisture awareness, and basic care before the freeze hits can help trees retain warmth at the root level and reduce long term damage.
Atwood shared a short, practical video demonstrating correct mulching techniques that homeowners can follow right away. It is designed to be clear, quick, and helpful for anyone who wants their trees to come through the cold weather healthy and strong.

The message is simple. The more neighbors who know what to do, the better our local trees’ chance of weathering the freeze and growing safely in the seasons ahead. Sharing this information now could save trees later.
